OCTOBER 27, 2019
The earthly Church prays for the Church y p yin Purgatory in hope of a reunion in heaven The feast of All Souls is the Catholic Memorial Day. On
this day, the Church commemorates the souls of all the baptized who have died and yet who do not yet enjoy life with God in heaven. It is Catholic teaching that souls needing post-death purification can benefit from the prayers, alms, sacrifices, and Mass offerings of souls on earth.
Few die with their souls so perfectly purified from sin and imperfection that they proceed directly to the Beatific Vision. The soul needs to be purified, its sins must be burned away in the fire of God’s merciful love. This is purgatory. It is the ante-chamber of heaven, the place of waiting and preparation where the soul is readied to enter and absorb the whitest of God’s light. But souls in purgatory have no free will or ability to atone by themselves for themselves. They depend on us. They advance in purification due to our prayers and offerings for them. This is why we pray for the dead and offer Masses for their advancement to heaven.
The Feast of All Souls, then, is much more than a spiritual family reunion where we visit the graves of our ancestors and recall with a tear all the good times. All Souls Day longs for a deeper bond, for an ultimate reunion with God at the head of the family in heaven with all His saints and angels.
On All Souls’ Day, we offer Christian prayer and sacrifice for Christian souls on a Christian feast. Through the Sacraments, grace, redemptive suffering, alms giving, good deeds and fasting we move through the shadowlands of occult fiction, horror movies, and vampire legends. The Christian does not seek eternal life as an extension or intensification of earthly life, but as a higher life in the presence of God. The Church offers mystery enough for everyone. The deathly battle of good and evil, of devils against angels, of sin against grace, of the cross against temptation, is not fiction. It’s as serious as cancer. In this supernatural arena, souls hang in the balance, with heaven or hell, eternal life or eternal death, resting on the scales. Today we put our fingers on that scale and tip it in favor of those we love who have gone before us.
PRAYER: All Holy Souls, our prayers and Mass offerings are directed to you this day, in the hope that what we do on earth may benefit your advancement toward a fully divine life in heaven where you may, in turn, pray that we may one day join you there.
~ taken from my Catholic life ~
During the entire month of November, a book of remembrance will be on display at the front of the Church sanctuary. All are invited to record the names of the deceased you wish to remember.
A Mass will be offered for the repose of their souls on Friday, November 29th at 7:00 pm.
Special ‘All Souls Day Remembrance’ offering envelopes are available for your convenience and can be deposited in the candle offering box located in the sacristy of the church.

Relationship with the Lord requires us to recognize our dependence on him.
While pride is the root of much sin, humility is the soil in which a life of virtue can grow. The more we recognize our need for God and his mercy, the more we can open ourselves up to the gracehe wishes to pour out on us. It is when we think ourselves independent of God that we close ourselves off to his saving mercy and grace.
